CHAPTER 1 LEARNING OBJECTIVES c c c




CLO1-1: Use the chance model to determine whether an observed statistic is unlikely to occur.
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c




CLO1-2: Calculate and interpret a p-value, and state the strength of evidence it provides againstthe null
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



hypothesis.c




CLO1-3: Calculate a standardized statistic for a single proportion and evaluate the strength ofevidence
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



it provides against a null hypothesis.
c c c c c c




CLO1-4: Describe how the distance of the observed statistic from the parameter value specifiedby the null
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



hypothesis, sample size, and one- vs. two-sided tests affect the strength of evidence against the
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



null hypothesis.

CLO1-5: Describe how to carry out a theory-based, one-proportion z-test.
c c c c c c c c c

LO1.1-1: Recognize the difference between parameters and statistics.

LO1.1-2: Describe how to use coin tossing to simulate outcomes from a chance model of the ran-dom

choice between two events.

LO1.1-3: Use the One Proportion applet to carry out the coin tossing simulation.
c c c c c c c c c c c c




LO1.1-4: Identify whether or not study results are statistically significant and whether or not thechance
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



model is a plausible explanation for the data.
c c c c c c c c




LO1.1-5: Implement the 3S strategy: find a statistic, simulate results from a chance model, andcomment
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



on strength of evidence against observed study results happening by chance alone.
c c c c c c c c c c c c




LO1.1-6: Differentiate between saying the chance model is plausible and the chance model is the correct

explanation for the observed data.

Do red uniform wearers tend to win more often than those wearing blue uniforms in Taekwondo
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



matches where competitors are randomly assigned to wear either a red or blue uniform? In a
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



sample of 80 Taekwondo matches, there were 45 matches where thered uniform wearer won.

1. What is the parameter of interest for this study?

A. The long-run proportion of Taekwondo matches in which the red uniform wearerwins

3. Given below is the simulated distribution of the number of ―red wins‖ that could happen bychance

alone in a sample of 80 matches. Based on this simulation, is our observed result statistically
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



significant?
c




A. Yes, since 45 is larger than 40. c c c c c c




B. Yes, since the height of the dotplot above 45 is smaller than the height of thedotplot
c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c c



above 40. c c




C. No, since 45 is a fairly typical outcome if the color of the winner‘s uniform

wasdetermined by chance alone.
